Get a glossier finish with easier washing and added resistance to UV and staining. Ceramic coating is ideal for daily drivers, weekend cars, and work vehicles that need a cleaner look with less upkeep.
Ceramic coating is a liquid protective layer that bonds to your paint and creates a slick, hydrophobic surface. It helps repel water and grime, improves gloss, and adds resistance to UV and staining, making your vehicle easier to maintain day to day.
The right prep is what makes a coating last and look its best.
Ceramic coating is all about easier maintenance and longer-lasting gloss. Here are the key points to know.
Creates a slick surface that helps repel water and grime, so washing is faster and the finish stays cleaner for longer.
Coatings help with staining, UV, and surface wear, but they are not designed to stop stone chips. If chips are your priority, look at PPF .
A coating only performs as well as the paint underneath. Proper wash, decontamination, and refinement make the biggest difference to gloss and durability.
Ceramic coating is ideal if you want a cleaner, glossier finish with less effort. It suits vehicles that are driven often, parked outside, or washed regularly, and it is a smart option for owners who want long-term shine without constant polishing.

Ceramic coating is low maintenance, but good washing habits and the first week of care make a big difference to performance and longevity.
For the first 48 hours, keep the surface clean and avoid letting water spots bake on.
Avoid washing with soap or chemicals for roughly 5 to 7 days, so the coating can finish curing.
Wash with a pH-neutral shampoo, use soft microfibre wash media, and avoid heavy scrubbing.
Avoid washing in direct sun to reduce water spotting.
Professional ceramic coatings can last for years when applied correctly and maintained properly. A common lifespan range is 2 to 10 years, depending on the product, prep, and aftercare.
Warranty depends on the coating package and manufacturer terms. Some manufacturers require ongoing maintenance to keep warranty coverage valid, for example annual servicing requirements. We will confirm the warranty details for your chosen option at booking and provide the care guidance to match.

Quick answers about ceramic coating in Perth, including what it does, what it does not do, how long it lasts, and how to look after it.
Ceramic coating is a liquid protective layer that bonds to your paint and forms a slick surface on top of the clear coat. It is designed to improve gloss and make the vehicle easier to maintain day to day.
It helps resist UV and oxidation, chemical staining, and general build-up from grime and road film. The main win is easier washing and a finish that stays looking sharper for longer.
No. Ceramic coating can help with light surface marking, but it is not impact protection and will not stop stone chips. If chips are the priority, PPF is the better option for those high-impact areas.
Longevity depends on the product, the prep, and how the vehicle is maintained. As a general guide, many ceramic coatings are expected to last around 2 to 5 years, with some higher-end systems lasting longer with the right care.
Often, yes. If the paint has swirls, haze, or dullness, correcting it first improves the final finish and helps the coating bond properly. Coating locks in what is already there, so prep is where the result comes from.
Curing time varies by product and conditions. As a safe rule, keep the vehicle dry for the first hours after application and avoid chemical washing for the first few days. We will give you the exact care window for your coating at handover.
Use a pH-neutral shampoo, soft wash media, and avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes. Good washing habits keep the coating performing and the finish looking its best.
If you want easier maintenance and a better-looking finish long term, yes. Perth’s sun, heat, and dust can wear a finish down quickly, and coating helps reduce build-up and keeps washing simpler for daily drivers and work vehicles.
